        Personally, I think carrying a RED expensive bag to school may be a flag to bullies to pick on new kids. I normally play it safe and just give my son a non-descript black bag.

          Just bought a red SPI bag for my boy! I'll make sure that
          I won't clean the bag when it is dirty so it not so 'eye catching' :lol:

              Hi all,


              Interesting topic. Never did i realise how much a FANTASTIC school bag can cost until i was ready to buy a GOOD one for my boy who just started P1 this year.

              With $200 Taka vouchers with me, we went to Taka to hunt for a GOOD bag. Ya, bought one something like TLC Treatment costs $125!!! :shock: This bag came with spinal support, correct posture.....that's y so X! In my these 30 over years, i never spent sooooo much on a bag 😛 Lucky with those vouchers,or else dun think i am willing to give my pocket a big hole!! :lol: I even told my boy \"Your mum never takes such costly bag, u ought to be grateful & take good care of your school bag. Dun come home with missing bag\" :lol:

                I find the CAMPRO is good enough for now.

                At Popular, after the member's discount comes
                to about below $40 and if you buy during store
                wide 20% sales like during National Day and such...
                wud be even cheaper! I find that expensive enough.
                and this is 2nd year running, that kiddie is using it...
                So far, so good. No tears from the daily wear. I'm a
                satisfied customer! 😉

                When kiddie was in P1 and the class was on ground
                floor, we'll let her use the trolley bag on extra heavy
                load days... This however is a subjective situation...
                Some schools do allow use of trolley bags and there
                are some who don't due to the noise of the wheels
                being dragged. Guess they cannot take the noise it
                makes when a whole bunch of over 90 children of
                (3 classes per se) drag their trolleys all around the
                corridors. So, before getting the trolley bags, get
                confirmation of clearance from the school first,
                lest you may waste money to get another normal
                haversack kind eventually... while the nice trolley
                one is saved for special holidays.. 😛

                  When we were choosing a bag for DD last year, we went to Popular to look at the Campro bags. Boy, they were huge and bulky! :shock: We gave up and in the end, my MIL got her a normal Disney Princess bag (pink, of course) from some department store.


                  My DD will ask for trolley bags now and then but I will always explain to her that they are already bulky and heavy WITHOUT anything inside. And the frame makes it a pain to carry, with barely any ventilation for the back, and my DD sweats and gets rashes easily. I also tell her that her classroom is on the 4th floor so I did ask her if she wanted to lug something like that up so many floors.

                  Luckily, she has stopped asking...for now.

                        Hi Luvkid, I also bought the TLC model. It’s under SPI, just that it’s the older model. I chose it over the new model as TLC’s top corner is more rectangular than the newer model so that the files can fit in better without getting the "doggy ears" 😎


                        I think it’s worth the investment. The bag’s very firm according to those who have been using it for years. The base does not give way, which normally happens to other simpler bags.

                        The bag appears heavy when you try to hold it up. However when it’s properly strapped onto the shoulders, it tapers closely to the person’s back and you simply do not feel much of the weight at all. This is what we are paying for.

                        My husband originally did not believe in spending so much on a bag. He was just thinking of getting one that is around $40, which we could easily find. I managed to convinced him to check out the SPI bags…and he bought it there and then on the spot!

                        I have no regrets over this investment.
